How to Make Jello Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened margarine, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and 3 packets (3 oz) of your favorite Jello flavor in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Place the balls onto ungreased baking sheets.
- Flatten each ball slightly with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
